We really enjoyed our visit to Cornwall and this lovely apartment was perfect for us. It is very well equipped and beautifully decorated. The owners also provide thoughtful treats and milk in the fridge which is very welcome if you arrive late in the evening.The view of St. Michaels Mount from the front is amazing. I would be happy to recommend this apartment to anyone.

Spacious, comfortable and well equipped, this apartment is also in a prime location, on the sea front. Pubs, restaurants, beach and a RSPB site are all within a short walk. On arrival we found fresh scones, cream, jam, wine and milk in the fridge - most welcome after a long journey! Major supermarkets are just a few miles away on the outskirts of Penzance. Highly recommended.

Beachcomber is a wonderful place to spent holiday - it's a little paradise to stay and relax! We didn't feel so welcome before than in Sue's perfect apartment. Thanks a lot for the flowers, wine and scones - that's so hearty and very special. We missed nothing - at beachcomber you get all you need. We enjoyed our time here and are so happy! A lot of thanks to Sue - you are a great hostess.

A lovely one bedroom flat, perfect for 2, we had lovely weather and the stay was fantastic. However........... What the brochure doesn't say, and neither do any other reviews is that this flat is opposite a large children's playground which is very noisy, with bored parents almost supervising their over active children. There is also no mention anywhere that the flat above provides great entertainment, in that you can hear EVERYTHING that goes on up there. Every toilet flush, footstep, conversation, television noise, music etc etc. if you stay there don't have sex it can be heard!!!!!!!!! However we did enjoy our stay, but won't be coming back, until it is soundproofed.

"We are pleased you think our apartment is lovely, and you had a fantastic stay. We are surprised by your other comments, as the small , young kiddies play area is a substantial distance away from the apartment, not used that much (why would you, with the expansive beach right in front) and most people find it a joy, occasionally watching little toddlers being able to have fun, laughing and being happy, by the seaside. But we do understand that everyone has a personal view and we are sorry if that wasn't for you. Finally, in all the years, we haven't had guests complain about the noise from the apartment above Beachcomber. It is a solid, substantial building, with high ceilings and with the stunning views and substantial outside area, most people are so contented staying with us, as hopefully, all our reviews show. We are very proud of our apartment and the reviews, which have been written by people from all over the world, and hope we continue providing a high standard apartment, with a 5* star rating for many years to come:)

Rob and Sue have a lovely little place here! My boyfriend and I were down for a long weekend stay from Friday to Monday, on arrival we walked in to a lovely set table with scones, clotted cream and jam, wine and some celebrations, such a nice welcome touch! The apartment is situated opposite the car park where you have a permit and we woke up to fantastic sunny views of the sea and St Michaels Mount! The apartment had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. We were visiting family who live in nearby Goldsithney but this is a great base for visiting Lands End, St Ives and Porthleven. If this is your first trip you must walk over to the mount at low tide! Would recommend to all and would definatly return. One great addition to the apartment would be wifi access, otherwise our stay couldn't be faulted! Thank you!

Just returned after spending the October Half Term at Beachcomber. Absolutely brilliant as we wanted somewhere overlooking the sea, but with easy access to the rest of South West Cornwall, and weren't disappointed.The apartment was much bigger than we expected, another bonus, and very tastefully decorated. Everything exactly as advertised, and the parking literally across the road.Well deserves its five star rating.

We stayed for a week commencing 2nd August. Our weather was perfect but our Beachcomber apartment for two was perfect for us. We couldn’t fault in at all and felt sad when we left.Lovely decoration and set up – Great location for a couple to enjoy Cornwall at any time of the year.
